Blanket fort
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For the record label, see Couch Fort Records
A blanket fort is a construction, generally made by children, using blankets, bed sheets, pillows, and sofa cushions. A blanket fort is also sometimes referred to as a couch fort or pillow fort.
It can be as small as a tent, or as complex as the area it is constructed within allows, up to labyrinthine proportions. Tables, chairs, and beds can be integrated as supports. Heavy books can be used to weigh-down the blanket corners. Lightweight sheets can be nailed to walls. Typically blankets, pillows, or sleepingbags are laid upon the floor within, to provide a cushioned interior.
